Props and Costumes #1

Idea:

My idea was to create a survivor that looks like Eli in the "The Book of Eli" but more for winter weather. My character will be wearing a big jacket, a beanie, neck warmer, goggles, big winter, and some sort of cargo pants.
I also looked at other zombie movies and some TV shows to get more an idea of what a post apocalyptic costume looks like.



Practice shoot Costume/Props: 

This is what my actor was wearing for the practice shoot. In the final shoot the actor will be wearing a different pair of pants, and maybe different shoes. The costume will also be dirty. I tried to create a worn feel for the costume so i used duck tape on the jacket. To create a bit of a mystery and to stick with the winter feel i covered my character face up with ski goggles, a neck warmer, and a beanie. It also makes him look intimidating which helps with the genre.
I used props to backup the zombie genre as well as its every one for themselves. My character is holing a bow and has a few arrows in his backpack. Strapt to the backpack is also sniper rifle which i will slightly modify with a silencer to get ride of the orange tip. He also has a big knife which is shown when he stabs a corps.

List of Props needed for shoot.

  1. You need a MUCH more detailed post (maybe vodcast) than this! If this is part of a series, again use a numbering system, and be clearer with the post title what it is SPECIFICALLY about

  2. My January comment remains true.
    You did excellent production work on this BUT you need to show it was carefully considered - this post is nowhere near enough to do so. Break down each detail: jacket, headwear, goggles, bags, weapons, footwear, trousers, the zombie, the car victim, blood effect [which you could link to a separate post]
    Remember you're marked on APPLYING research, you need to provide more specific links to this as well, including the zombie look + costume
